It's a new dawn...

Yesterday evening on the way to get Danny from the train station, I stopped and checked the mailbox. I all but jumped out of my skin when I saw a small priority mail box jammed inside. MY OTHER PILLS!!! I couldn't wait to eat!!

I took one of each pill right before we sat down to a dinner of smoked turkey sausage and applesauce. Danny and I sat watching Bobby Flay have a throwdown with Tony Luke. All was quiet. No gurgling, no bloating, no cramping.

A while later, we're watching the Glee special that aired after the Super Bowl (on the DVR) and I felt kinda hungry. So I went out to the kitchen to rustle myself up an old favorite. I actually have my big sister to thank for introducing me to this one! The Veggie Sandwich!! :^)

We found this awesome G-free bread at our grocery store! It's actually light and airy and not like a fuckin' brick! My only complaint is that the loaves are really small and they cost $5.99... It's like smurf sized bread. But I digress...

I toasted up some bread, sliced a tomato, an avocado and ripped up some green leaf lettuce. I decided to do a little test and let myself enjoy a healthy dose of mayo. OMG!!! It was soooo good! The bread and the veggies and the mayo... it all blended together in a perfect combination of flavors.

But the best part? Here I had eaten a fair bit within a few hours and for the first time in a really long time, I felt fantastic!! No cramping, no bloating, no gurgling and no blazing a trail to the bathroom!! I slept peacefully, not once waking with a stomach pain or the sensation that a bomb was about to explode in my colon.

It's a new day and the only thing I feel right now is my tummy growling because it's hungry for breakfast... and that's a sensation I can live with!!
